'No Love Lost' Between Usher And Justin Bieber As Latter Turned Down Opportunity To Perform At Super Bowl; DEETS
Usher clarified his bond with Justin Bieber after the latter opted out of sharing the stage with the Burn singer. The musician revealed that he reached out to everybody, not just Baby singer.
In a conversation with The Breakfast Club, Usher opened up about Justin Bieber not joining him on the stage at the Super Bowl performance. While the fans anticipated the duo to come together, the OMG singer revealed that Beiber felt performing with his mentor was a lot of responsibility, which he was not ready for. The Grammy winner said that performing on a stage like that of a Super Bowl is a lot of pressure, and he not only asked the Peaches singer but "reached out to everybody."
Usher, on the radio show, said, "I honor and recognize that my brother, you know, he—I think that it might've been the fact that he's just wanting to tell a different story right now, and I understand that. But we did have a brief conversation, and we're gonna do something else in the future. No love lost or anything like that."
He further added, "Justin wasn't the only person that I actually spoke to about doing the Super Bowl, but the moment was maybe for later. He's gonna play the Super Bowl. I'll go ahead and give you that in the future. I profess that over his life. It's time because he has a career that deserves it. But it just didn't happen, but that doesn't mean it's not going to."

He captioned the picture, "LOVE YOU MY BROTHER; NO ONE CAN SING AND DANCE THE WAY YOU DO. LOVE YOU FROM THE DEPTHS OF MY HEART. BROUGHT THE 'A' TO THE WORLD, ONLY YOU BABYYYYYY."
The Baby singer went on to praise the Grammy winner, who performed his hit songs, including Yeah!, OMG, Love In This Club, and many more.
